No Worries Drink More Wine!

Logo Shirts

High fashion has arrived. R & R Fine Art Photography now wears logo branded shirts! More styles coming soon.....

They are a great fit and perfect customization for picky customers! Yes, that would be me. I like my shirts to fit just right.

And our friends at Indian Creek Embroidery took perfect care of us...with excellent service I might add....consider your next branded clothing with them!

Maryland Pizza & Maryland Wine

Since 1955, Ledo's Pizza, a University of Maryland favorite, (Go Terps!) crafted a unique pizza with special homemade sauce, extra provolone cheese on thin, square/rectangle crust. I know because I use to make them!
Ledo's Pizza still maintains a local Maryland flavor which makes for an excellent match with some local Maryland red wines! This pizza pairs well with Serpent Ridge's Basilisk, Running Hare's Shiraz, or Black Ankle's Passeggiata. If you are a California fan try this great budget red, Tisdale Shiraz. Always enjoy with friends.

So, how does one drink a sparkling red?

We received this as a gift from a winemaker friend whose own sparkling red is underway. So in anticipation of his, he offered up this Australian Sparkling red to float on.

It begins with a POP! Pours with a subtle foam even softer than the sea into one red wine glass and one champagne flute, because we really weren’t sure how to drink it.

Per our son’s request the big red buoy earned first honors, swirling like a red with short stubby legs, driftwood and a traveling steam trunk. The trailing bubbles rose to the crest of mouth quickly followed by licorice and leather.

But, the champagne flute took a different route leading us closer to port with little foam at the dock. The steam truck, leather and licorice held tight. With the first swallow, it was clear, red right returning to the big wine glass!

No worries, drink more wine!

The Perfect PA Wine for Fall - Tasting Notes

A perfect Fall wine...

To help get in the Fall mood try a little Alpine White by Sand Castle Winery, Erwinna, PA.

Serve it up hot with a little cinnamon spice, grab a seat by the fire pit, a throw blanket and enjoy. Pairs nicely with a good book or great company, as long as you share.

MD Wine Fest a Family Event – You Bet!

Wine and kids, not usually a good combination, but the Maryland wine festival offers something for the whole family, and the vendor families too. With the fairgrounds located at the Carroll County Farm Museum, kids can enjoy animals (goats, pigs, chickens, Peafowl), a playground, enough space to play a little Frisbee and a little crawfishing in the stream too. Not to mention new friends to see again next year. Our son was so excited to see the same kids he hung out with last year that he didn't want to leave by the end of the day.

So next year if you think children aren’t welcome think again! Bring your picnic, your kids, your friends and have a good time….it’s about enjoying your wine and good company (for your kids, too) and not a drunk-fest!

Black Ankle Bedlam 2009 -Tasting Notes

Bedlam '09 is a smooth and easy white blend. Not overly complex but well balanced. It starts clean and closes with a subtle fruit. Any light dish will serve this wine well.



Today, Bedlam ended perfectly with "Reflections" leaving the Black Ankle tasting room. Number 1 of 20 was sold....Check out more Fine Art at Black Ankle by R & R Fine Art Photography; just look above the tasting bar!

No worries....drink more wine!

Running Hare Pinot Grigio - Tasting Notes

This American White Wine is crisp, and light with a soft nose, but don't let that fool you. This summer-style wine is ready for a picnic and has a story to tell. So get your blanket ready....your chicken salad sandwich or fresh cheese and Baguette and enjoy....the only thing that completes this Pinot Grigio is a family Frisbee game next to the vines...it's just too bad that only a few cases remain.














To complement your taste buds check out our eye candy of this Pinot Grigio, a limited edition Fine Art Piece "Double Gold" at the Events Room at Running Hare Vineyards..... www.runninghardvineyard.com and www.randrphotos.net.

Serpent's Song - Tasting Notes

At 7 am the bottle was opened releasing the Serpent's Song. Soft and airy this song was a subtle temptress....until just after noon when her song began to beg her image captors for a tasting. So we, with out hesitation, released the zork from holding captive, this amazing song.

One hundred percent Vidal Blanc this semi - sweet white wine is soft, sweet and melodious. It much like a Sauvignon Blanc absent of grass and musk. A perfect sipping wine that pairs well with goat cheese and french bread on a cool sunny Sunday. Stop by the tasting room at Serpent Ridge Vineyard, for more information go to - Serpent Ridge.

No worries, drink more wine!
